" So my girlfriend and I went to do some shopping at the Canadian Tire store at 1901 Eglinton Ave. East in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada, on Friday, July 16 in the afternoon. I didn’t wear a mask because it’s against my human rights and confirmed on their store sign that they respect the human rights exemption of not wearing a mask. So I walked in because I was at a Canadian Tire store the other day at another location and had no issues. As I walk in, the security guard tried to get in my face. When I said I was exempt, he told me that I still had to leave or prove the exemption. I started saying how your sign shows that I am part of the exemption, but he didn’t care. I started getting louder so other people would witness. Then these two plainclothes guys start coming at me. Only one will to show me that he worked security with Canadian Tire, and his boss, who was the main instigator, refused to give his name or show credentials. So I ended up being pushed out. I had a smoke and then turned my camera on to talk again with them nicely. That’s when the shorter of the plain-clothed security came up to me and told me I was under arrest and then proceeded with the two other security to put their hands on me started wrapping my hand behind my back. They tried slamming me to the ground outside on the pavement. I wasn’t resisting, but they kept pushing harder and making all these accusations. They finally get the cuffs on me even though I wasn’t resisting and were still outside and not in the building anymore. They pull me into the office and then proceed to threaten me while I’m there. I asked them to loosen the cuffs since very tight. They even had one cuff with a long chain attached to a bench, and he refused to switch from the double cuff to the single cuff so I wouldn’t have my hands behind my back because, he said, he thought I would attack them. He also wouldn’t allow me to go to the bathroom unless four security guards came with me, and one was to be in the bathroom stall with me as well!
All I had done to this point was raise my voice. I Never touched any of them.
My girlfriend was trying to figure out what was going on and was trying to get to me; they started saying that they would arrest her for obstruction just because she was trying to make sure I was okay. My girlfriend, who had done nothing wrong, was even wearing a mask the whole time. They kept me in there until police arrived up about 4-5 hrs later, all the while toying with me and telling me they would charge me with assault, resisting arrest, trespassing and obstruction. Once the police officer arrived, he was shocked to see I was still in double handcuffs and could see how much pain I was in. He told them they needed to remove the cuffs immediately and that he couldn’t arrest me as it’s against the bylaw. I then said to the police officer that I wanted to press charges against the Canadian Tire plainclothes security officers for what they had done. The police officer then told me that there was nothing he could do due to the “State of Emergency” that we are in.
Canadian Tire and many other corporations feel that they have the power to do whatever they want to their customers, and from what I can see, the police can’t or won’t do anything. It’s clearly not right that these companies should have this much power over the police. It’s now been 24 hours, and my right thumb is still numb from how tight the handcuffs were. "
It looks like all of the previous incident videos from February 2021 were removed from Rumble in the past month or two.
